A word from

OUR EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

We are living in a new era, when both our world and our local environment are changing rapidly and in unforeseen ways. The effects of extreme weather systems, pressure from increasing development, and unregulated exploitation of precious and unrenewable resources, are all threats to our way of life and to the environment that we treasure in our region.

The GLLT has been working for over a quarter century to identify natural areas that can be protected in order to maintain a strong and viable ecosystem that preserves native wildlife habitat, safeguards air and water quality, and nurtures our creative spirit, while keeping large areas open to public access and traditional use. We steward those properties according to standards and practices defined by the Land Trust Alliance, and create education and outreach programs to inform our friends and neighbors of the fascinating and beautiful environment we all share.

It may be difficult to find ways to make a meaningful impact on the global environment, but it is possible to find ways that we can keep the wonders and delights of our region as a legacy for the future of our families and neighbors. As the costs for continuing the planning for and stewardship of the natural world rise in this new era, we ask that you consider a contribution to our work.
